What's wrong with that picture or have I taken the quote out of context?

I think it's more that the TW quote is out of context. Yes he is penciled in (to a position where we are desperately lacking), but MS quickly followed up saying that HOPEFULLY he earns it. That seems like all they are saying to the players, earn your spot. I am good with that.

I will revolt if we don't do that.

davis, thomas, and kelly they have never had a professional NFL head coach, offensive coordinator, or receivers coach in their entire NFL career. Now, they have two proven geniuses filling those first two roles. the ade jimoh of wr coaches, stan "bad penny" hixon has finally been kicked out of redskins park. i'm not sure mccardell will be a great WR coach, but he's an upgrade over his predecessor by default. i am very exicted about what our 2nd round trio from 2008 can accomplish now that they have qualified men coaching them and calling plays. I fully expect Devin Thomas to become a stud in 2010. While we can count on Moss to be a #2 guy this year, i hope Kelly can surplant him by 2011. If not, i'm sure we could bring in Eddie Royal in the offseason (i think his contract will be up and i doubt Denver tries hard to keep him).

Let's see what Eddie does the next 2 years as well.

I just read a really good quote on Peter King's MMQB -- apparently Tyson Alualu was asked what he had to say to those reporters who were calling him the biggest reach in the draft and he responded "I agree" .... hahaha what a dolt

Clever, I didn't hear Shanny say that thanks for the info. I was just kinda upset when NFLN said that Cooley had to fight for his job the other night. You know how fans are about their favorites. After some thought I guess that it is better for the team...besides Cooley shouldn't have any problem re earning his spot. If he doesn't then Davis was better.

I agree Angry. Besides, Cooley hasn't exactly had a lot of competition since he's been here. I think he'll be even better!

tryfuhl · 05-04-2010, 12:39 PM

well he basically said we'll see how he helps us there or something to that effect

basically if he's not helping us there, we'll try something else is what I take from it

I know it's weird thinking that a guy as good as Cooley has to compete for his spot but one thing we've had an issue with over the years is guys basically being guaranteed spots from year to year.

Having the ability to adjust should be good for production, can't go wrong with that one.
